45 Best Bar & Grill near Newton

“Great food and great service..👍“

“Loved their nachos. Great cocktails too. Very pleasant staff. The only negative was the air wasn’t working in the room we were in. They did have giant fans to help the air move though. I’d def. go again.“

“⸻ We had such a wonderful Easter brunch experience at the Riverbend! The food was absolutely delicious — fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The atmosphere was warm, inviting, and perfect for a relaxing meal. The service was outstanding as well; the staff was friendly, attentive, and made us feel right at home. Highly recommend this spot for anyone looking for a top-notch brunch experience. We'll definitely be back!“

“Holy moly! Rainy first night in Boston staying up the way at the Commonwealth we visited the Kenmore. Nathan took great care of us. Solid pour at the bar. Can I say enough about the K Burger? Likely not other than the first bite blows your mind. Quality over everything else. Great spot, will be back tonight and tomorrow night looking for Sturgill Simpson fans.“

“In Boston during FB season and searched for a Packer Bar - BansheeBar kept showing up and when asking around they were the #1 recommended place. FUN atmosphere, met Packer fans from all over, bartender Joy was amazing and took great care of everything! Would absolutely recommend. BansheeBar Boston Packers Everywhere“

“Really impressed with this restaurant! I've developed dietary restrictions due to health reasons which have prevented me from going to a lot of restaurants. When my friend planned a going away dinner here, I reached out via email asking if it was possible for them to accommodate me. They wrote back an extremely kind response saying they were looking forward to hosting me- that really made my day. The wait staff was wonderful, listened to all of my requests attentively and my meal was perfect and delicious. I will absolutely be back, thank you Audubon!“

“Great experience on Labor Day weekend. We sat outside and counted people carrying desks up chestnut hill avenue after a long live in day! Service was excellent and the food was warm and serviced to order, Excellent place to celebrate any occasion! Thanks Cityside, you never disappoint.“

“Had a Ball!!! Absolutely wndderfulnstaff and cocktails“

“A bar dedicated to my favorite poet? It was a no-brainer that I was gonna love this place. Might add, one of the best Guinness pours I’ve ever had. Perfect!“

“Everythings good Chicken Marsala is like candy“

“Great food and the service is fantastic.“

“One of the best meals my husband and I have had in our 30 year marriage. We eat out weekly and we were surprised by the outstanding quality of the food, the excellent service, friendly atmosphere and overall cost. The branzino was the best I've ever had in my life, including 10 or so meals both in restaurants and cooked at home. Crispy potatoes are a must, but the side dish that made our meal was surprisingly the buttermilk marinated cucumbers. Cocktails were great, atmosphere OK, and service excellent. We were there on a busy theater night during rush-hour and still had an outstanding experience. We will definitely be Back!“

“Excellent vibe, great food selection and cold Guinness 👍🏼👍🏼“

“Excellent food. Excellent specials. Caprese salad so fresh. All of the salads are a meal in themselves. Best chicken parm. Best chicken Marsala. Steak tips so tender with garlic mashed and sautéed spinach. Bartenders are so friendly and fun. Wait staff are awesome. Get there early. Fills up fast! Tommy and Mollie. Joe and Lori are greatest bartenders. Jocelyn and Jess and Paola are best waitresses“

“The restaurant is well-decorated and embodies the spirit of Boston in its decor. They offer a variety of items, from small plates to large. The beer selection includes both local and global options. The food dishes are beyond ordinary preparation, featuring a fusion of multiple cuisines, but with careful attention to avoid overshadowing any one cuisine. The veggie burger might sound simple, but even with lettuce wraps, it was juicy and the sauces were like warm hugs to the burger. The sides weren’t just plain house potatoes; they were crispy yet flavorful.“

“Consistent, quality pub food with reasonable prices! We only go for Tuesday trivia and it's a great time. Great host and atmosphere. A broad mix of ages but primarily college through 30's. They don't take reservations so you need to get there early to get a table.“

“First time visiting. We visit a lot of Mexican restaurants in and around the North Shore, and have our favorites. This is for sure a new favorite for us. The customer service at the location in Malden was excellent, our waitress was so polite, personable, and the right amount of attentive. The restaurant was spotless, I mean, SPOTLESS, including the restroom. The rest of the staff checked in, and the food was excellent.“

“Loved the tuna tacos. So fresh!“

“Excelente servicio y muy buen ambiente 🎤👌👍🫶😍“

“The minute you walk in your senses come alive... your sight with just enough lighting, you can see it’s a charming place you can see the smiles on the patrons faces, you can hear the laughter among the co workers with customers and themselves..the smell of the food is exhilarating... the drinks are amazing, my overall experience, well let’s just say I cannot wait to go back with friends an experience it all over again..“

“Greens’ Grill is, by far,my favorite restaurant. Paul has assembled a fantastic crew with Chef Suey leading the way. No matter what you order you will never be disappointed. I highly recommend the Grill for dinner or your next function. Paul Sands“

“Great Food , Amazing service excellent staff !!“

“If you're looking for a place where "everyone knows your name" in Randolph, 1048 Bar & Grill nails it. The atmosphere is exactly what you hope for when you walk into a local place, full of familiar faces and if they don't know you yet, give it five minutes. Everything is flavorful, and feels like it was made with care. I'm a huge fan of the turkey tips when they're on the menu, so get them when you can! But the best part of 1048 are the owners. They're not just running a great restaurant, they're a true part of the Randolph community. Always involved, always giving back, and always finding ways to support local causes. They put their heart into the town, and you can feel it with how they treat their customers. 1048 Bar & Grill is the kind of place that makes you glad you're local--and makes outsiders wish they were.“

“Food was pretty good service was good except for the door person who said I had to pay $10 (cash only) cover for the band and then after I dug $10 out of my wallet, let a party of 4 and a party of 2 in without paying since they only had cards and no cash. If I had known I would have lied about having cash or left. Band was pretty decent but music was beyond loud for a tiny place. I used airpods with ear protection and got a nice loud sound with no headache or ringing in my ear afterwards. Would recommend if you don't take cash and can get in for free. Food was good and fries where some of the best I have had recently. Hot fresh and crisp. Value is lost though if you tack on a $10 cover.“

“was in a last week Food was great and Denice waited on us. She was so attentive and so friendly. Such a great server! I will definitely be back and hope we get her again.“

“We stopped in because of the cool hangout vibe. We were not disappointed. Highly recommend!“

“the best food ,salmon ,salad,drinks and so much more“

“Second time here within 6 months. Last time they were good and I vowed I would give them another try. Last time there was no table service, I sat at the counter then. The place was lively and the food was decent. This time I ordered veggie omelet with shelled eggs and beef sausage with home fries and grits on the side, plus coffee. Then I sat down.

Prompt service from Ms. Edna..she's on point. She's personable, has great multitasking skills, and tries to anticipate your wants in a timely fashion. The only issue I had was with the home fries. Some of them were undercooked and you need to use a generous amount of salt/ pepper for the grits.

If I'm in the area, I will stop in for a decent, generously proportioned meal. Breakfast or lunch. Solid choice“

“Came here prior to a night out and so glad we found this place. Quality food and incredible cocktails at a reasonable price. Vibe and service is outstanding. Cassie and Kyle made our nights! Will definitely return any time we’re back in Allston.“

“We came for an early dinner. The food was good. The guacamole a little on the sweet side for me, but others at the table loved it. I had the short rib birria which was very tasty. Wanted to eat outside but the BU Campus store next door was blasting music. We ate inside where it was comfortable and conversation friendly. Our table server was wonderful“

“The food was fresh flavorful and delicious .“

“Everything. They are the perfect place to relax , have fun, and enjoy great Spanish music and great Spanish food. I love this place. 💜 Norvia is the Best!!!!“

“During my recent stay at doubletree by Hilton, I had the pleasure of dining at their in-house restaurant, and I must say—it exceeded every expectation. From the moment I walked in, I was struck by the elegant yet inviting ambiance. The lighting was warm, the décor tasteful, and the overall atmosphere perfect for both casual dinners and special occasions. The manager Tavish was very welcoming. Him, along with the rest of the staff, made the entire experience feel personal and seamless. 5 stars!“

“great experience and awesome Bar Keep.“

“Food is great. Not that many vegetarian options but offers a good selection. Prices are reasonable and it's a safe and comfortable atmosphere. Make sure to ask for specials of the day. There are great combos to try. Service is fast and there is a lot of seating available which helps when it's busy.“

“Great service, food is fantastic (buffalo pizza, and nachos with chicken), spicy margarita was awesome! Highly recommend checking this spot out!“

“Savin came recommended in a restaurant group so we gave it a try tonight. It was my friend and I with 5 children from 4 to 14. I arrived first with my son and was promptly greeted by Brody (who also waited on us). I explained we had 5 kiddos and inquired if a booth was available. He brought us over to a half booth which was perfect. The booth as well as chairs were very comfortable. I asked if we could have the older 2 girls (both 14) sit at the table next to us (they enjoy doing this). He was so accommodating andhappily set us up. Water was brought over for all of us and he asked if we had any questions on the menu. He said he would give us a few minutes to make our selections and went to get the beverages we ordered. 5 minutes later he came back with drinks and asked if we were ready to order. I got the chicken penne and added shrimp. My friend got the buffalo chicken quesadilla. We usually order 2 items and split them. Both were delish and we really enjoyed both entrees. The older girls got the adult portion max and cheese, which was cavatappi pasta with a ritz breadcrumb. They both said it was perfect consistency and enjoyed it. 2 kiddos got the kids size mac and cheese (cavatappi pasta with cheese) and 1 got the pasta with red sauce. Decent portions for a kids meal. The atmosphere was very nice. The music selection was also great and perfect volume. Brody was absolutely wonderful. He was attentive, but never pushy. Service was definitely a 10/10. This was the first time we have been to Savin but we will definitely be back. We felt the check was very fair for 7 people. (I snapped a few quick pics which really don’t do it justice but…).“

“Amazing service and amazing food The lobster man’s casserole was phenomenal and the fish and chips. My wife said was really good.“

“We had a small birthday gathering here and had a blast. This is the best king’s location I have been to in the Boston area and it really took us by surprise. Our server for our booked lane was really kind and attentive and the food quality seemed better than that of other locations. The other staff were kind too. The arcade was on the small side, but still fun. They had karaoke too!“

“I was hoping to order a la carte, but my only option was the breakfast buffet. Our waiter was less than enthusiastic. The buffet was well stocked and the lady who made my omelette was sweet and she did a nice job. Bananas Foster were yummy. I think we got there at a good time. It was quiet. I would hate to be there when it gets busy. It was ok, but I wish it had been a tad cheaper for what it was.“

“Awesome stuff unbelievable services I would recommend it 100% one of the top 10 bar/pubs and bars“

“Best Mexican, Salvadorean and Guatemalan food I've had so far within a hour radius. We got the fajita tejanas and the gordita (pollo) very flavorful, meats were soft and butter like, good cuts. Tortillas are homemade. I was the only white person here which is a sign that it's authentic or close to it. Will be dreaming of this. Seems like they have dancing at some point, and they have two bars. Great portions.

Parking: Plenty of free parking in a lot.“

“Fun place!!! Friendly bartender!!“

“God mat med rejäla portioner. Supertrevlig personal.“

“Outside patio on a nice sunny day“
